Urate deposits in the renal medulla. Prevalence and associations.

abstract：:As the nephron population diminishes and azotemia develops, each remaining nephron adapts and increases its function by as much as 80%. To determine whether this adaption is permanent or transient, a rat model utilizing one remnant kidney and one normal control kidney was used. In stage one, immediately after ligation...
